Zhao Yanyan nodded in deep agreement.

Zhu Xiaoqin seemed to regret hitting Zhao Yanyan.

Zhao Guangsheng had no choice but to accept his fate of being fired.

The best option now is to quietly leave under the pretext of poor health.

If things escalate, he'll be the one who ends up looking bad.

Seeing that he had put away his resignation letter, Zheng Huai then said to Zhu Xiaoqin:

"Dean Zhu, thank you for your trouble. Please take Zhao Yanyan to complete the withdrawal procedures as soon as possible. Our real college student still has nowhere to live."

Zhu Xiaoqin's voice was hoarse, and she was in a very low mood.

"I'll take Yan Yan to pack her things in the dorm this afternoon."

After leaving the hospital, Zheng Huai gave Zhao Yanyan a gentle smile.

“I heard from Shen Jingyan that your family is struggling financially and you are worried about getting into university. Although our country is not wealthy either, we are willing to do everything we can to educate university students, especially someone as outstanding as you.”

As he spoke, he took out ten yuan from his pocket. "I'll lend you this money first. Shen Jingyan, take Zhao Yanyan to buy some daily necessities. You'll be starting school in a day or two, so you need to ensure she has a normal life."

Zhao Yanyan blushed, clutching the hem of her clothes as she stammered, "Teacher Zheng, I can't take your money..."

Zheng Huai laughed: "Who said I was going to give you money? I clearly said I was borrowing it, and what's borrowed must be returned. Besides, you're penniless right now. If you don't borrow money from me, you'll borrow money from someone else, right?"

Zheng Huai was a master of rhetoric; once he said that, Zhao Yanyan had no reason to refuse.

Shen Jingyan cheerfully took her hand and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to the department store."

It happened to be a Sunday, and the department store was bustling with people.

Zhao Yanyan looked at the dazzling array of goods on the shelves, cautiously revealing an expression of curiosity and amazement.

Unlike most rural people who, upon their first visit to the city, exclaim "Wow!" in exaggerated manner, acting as if they've never seen the world before, she didn't do that.

Shen Jingyan knew that Zhao Yanyan still had many places where she needed money. Prices in the capital were high, and ten yuan didn't last long.

She exchanged a large number of tickets from her spatial storage.

"Yanyan, I have a lot of tickets here. We won't need them for a long time. Let's use the tickets first when we buy things, so you don't have to go through the trouble of finding change. You can give them to me later when you have your change."

The two spent the afternoon shopping at the department store and basically bought all their daily necessities.

While browsing, Shen Jingyan suddenly spotted Yang Xuechang at a women's clothing counter.

He was holding a coat made of Dacron material, carefully examining the stitching.

Shen Jingyan realized that his taste was really good; that coat was a popular style this year, and as the weather gradually warms up, many young women are wearing this style of coat.

Yang Xuechang chose a white jacket with a blue floral pattern. The colors were bright, and a smile unconsciously appeared on his lips. He probably imagined Duan Meishan wearing this jacket.

Shen Jingyan stepped forward and greeted them.

"Brother Yang! You've come to buy clothes for Shanshan?"

Yang Xuechang chuckled and said, "Shanshan is reluctant to buy one. She only has one old jacket in the spring, which she has worn for three or four years. It has been patched countless times and the color has faded. It's perfect that you're here. You have a good eye, so can you help me see if it's okay?"

Shen Jingyan glanced at Yang Xuechang's patched trousers and thought to herself, "Such a considerate husband is truly hard to find in this world."

As she thought about it, Gu Zhiyun's unhappy face popped into her mind.

"Hard to find in this world? Open your eyes wider and look carefully again?"

Chen Jingyan mocked herself, "Really, why can't I stop thinking about him no matter what I do?"

She gave Yang Xuechang a thumbs up and said, "Brother Yang, you have great taste! This style and color suit Shanshan perfectly!"

Zhao Yanyan stood next to Shen Jingyan and secretly glanced at the price.

Three yuan and fifty cents, that's so expensive.

But Yang Xuechang did not hesitate to take out three yuan and fifty cents and hand it to the salesperson.

After buying the coat, his gaze turned to the counter next to him.

That counter specializes in selling children's clothes; the little clothes, shoes, and hats are all incredibly cute.

Yang Xuechang picked up a jacket embroidered with a kitten pattern, and the saleswoman enthusiastically introduced it to him:

"Young man, buying clothes for your daughter? How old is your daughter?"

Yang Xuechang looked at the price and hesitated again.

"My child isn't even born yet."

However, he really wanted a cute daughter.

"You can keep it in advance! This outfit is suitable for babies under three months old. Look, the fabric is pure cotton, it's very soft and won't hurt a baby's skin at all!"

Yang Xuechang was tempted again.

His child is due in a little over a month, and as a father, he should give the child a gift, right?

Seeing the tenderness overflowing in his eyes, both Shen Jingyan and Zhao Yanyan were deeply moved.

In the end, Yang Xuechang gritted his teeth and spent 1.5 yuan to buy the little shirt.

He was a warm-hearted person, and as soon as he heard that Zhao Yanyan was the real college student, he helped them carry their things.
